A big welcome from golf country, Monterey, CA. You live in the original Mecca!Hey! I'm new here, from Dundee, Scotland, have been smoking a pipe for about a year now, I usually smoke special (mellow) virginia as an everyday baccy, keep a couple of tins of connoisseurs choice for when I fancy a nicer smoke, probably on the younger end of the spectrum here (late 20s)

A drizzly, soggy afternoon, too wet to get out to the allotment. Again. Perhaps I'll just don my wet weather gear tomorrow and plumb in yet another overflow rainwater butt to stop it all going to waste. Penny to a quid that March brings a drought. No floods here as yet, biut I think my late carrots and parsnips may be starting to float away.
